“I’m a completely different person than I was when I first transferred here to now. It’s helped shaped me into a young woman, which is what my mom would say, but it’s totally true. I got to study abroad. I’ve done extensive policy research, I’ve been significantly challenged and pushed in a lot of my classes and I’ve had a lot of fun.”
